Troubleshooting
Product leaves white residue or streaks.
This may indicate over-application or insufficient drying time. Ensure excess product is wiped away with a clean cloth while still wet. Allow adequate drying time between coats and ensure the can was shaken sufficiently.
Trim does not appear to have a 'new look' shine.
Ensure the surface was thoroughly cleaned and dried before application. The product enhances existing colour; heavily faded or damaged plastic may require multiple applications or may not achieve the desired result if the plastic is degraded.
Overspray on paintwork or windows.
Use a clean cloth to apply the product for better control, especially around delicate areas. If overspray occurs, remove it immediately with a clean, damp cloth before it dries.
